Hey Andrei,

Depends on the output options you using/have available to you.

If you're (for example) using SDL (-vo sdl) for output, try hitting 'f' for 
'fullscreen'. You might need some small video resolutions defined, so that the 
server can switch to the closest size. I use:

"536x344" "640x480" "320x240" "352x240" "352x280" "352x288"

in my "Modes" settings, in addition to the modes I actually use X in. I still 
had these from 'mtv' etc. Let me know if you want the timings.

If you're using X11 DGA, (-vo dga:x11) for output, it'll probably be 
fullscreen already. Probably faster/smoother to boot, although there's no On 
Screen Display.

HTH.
